Lux Meter Grid Worksheet Table

Measurement table for recording repeatable lux-meter grid points, planes, conditions and reading boundaries.

Lux meter point gridPoint labels keep the average, low point and spread tied to the same measured plane.

Grid itemWhat to labelWhy it mattersBoundary
Point IDA1, A2, centre, desk-left, bench-front or another stable point label.Repeatable labels make later readings comparable.A small grid is not a formal uniformity assessment.
Plane and heightFloor, desktop, bench, shelf face or vertical plane with height where relevant.Lux values change when the assessed plane changes.Do not compare readings from different planes as one result.
Lighting stateElectric lights on or off, dimming state, scene and control setting.Measured illuminance can change with output and control state.Control programming remains outside the reading log.
Daylight conditionTime, sky, blind state, direct sun and daylight contribution where relevant.Daylight can change the reading even when the luminaires are unchanged.One daylight condition is not an all-day result.
Obstruction noteFurniture, racking, person shadow, open door, display or temporary object near the point.Obstructions can explain local low or high readings.Do not hide changed obstruction states inside one comparison.
Comparison basisSame point set, same plane and same control state before readings are compared.The worksheet shows whether a before/after comparison is fair.The table does not verify a project or workplace outcome.
